About Me

I live for the moments. I am fun, funny and just a general joy to be around. I have just returned from a 2 years of travelling and miss the vibe. Therefore I plan to repay the generosity my friends showed me when travelling around by becoming the host and not the surfer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling around many friends and hosts let me stay a few days in their homes. I simply wish to extend that generosity now to travellers coming to my city.

And I am sure we can all relate that as a traveller when you return home you miss the vibe, culture and mind set of travelling and you want to stay immersed in it. Thus if I am not the traveller now I wish to still be around them.
